A Fun Day at Honolulu Zoo

The Kindergarten classes had the opportunity to visit the Honolulu Zoo and enjoy an upclose and personal encounter with the animals. Although they have been studying different aspects of animals through videos and picture books, it was an educational experience to observe the wide variety of animals and their behavior. This experience gave them a deeper understanding of the lessons they studied. The best part of the field trip was when a Zoo volunteer gave the students a brief speech about some animals skulls. This gentleman, not only allowed everyone to touch these animal skulls, but a piece of zebra skin and a stuffed reptile.
